Rainbow Dash: I like your attitude, Bulk Biceps, but it's gonna take more than muscles and Yeah!s to get us to the Equestria Games! We are the Aerial Relay team, and it's up to the three of us to make sure that we qualify at the tryouts. And do I need to remind you how much I - I mean, Ponyville, heh – wants to qualify and make it to the Games?

Fluttershy: I remember. I really, really, really want to qualify for you and Ponyville.

Bulk Biceps: Bring it on!

Pinkie Pie: Gimme a 'P' for 'Ponyville'!

Fluttershy: [yelps]

Pinkie Pie: [through megaphone] P, Ponyville!

Bulk Biceps: P!

Fluttershy: Oh, thanks, Pinkie Pie. That was a scary- I mean, great cheer. [laughs nervously]

Rainbow Dash: Just make sure you have one ready for when we qualify for the Aerial Relay.

Bulk Biceps: And after that, for when we win gold medals in the Equestria Games!

Applejack: Not so fast! If you're gonna be good, you're gonna be better with some of my apple brown bettys in ya. They're perfect.

Pinkie Pie: 'P' is for 'perfect'!

Bulk Biceps and Fluttershy: [chewing]

Rainbow Dash: Alright, team! Show me what you got! Put some bend into those knees! Flap those wings! And I want to see all four hooves off the ground on the count of three! [beat] [quickly] One two three!

Helia: Good luck, Rainbow Dash! Sorry we couldn't fly with you on the Aerial Relay, but the air sprinters needed us too.

Thunderlane: Too bad we can only compete in one event. [sighs] But, rules are rules.

Twilight Sparkle: Good luck! [to Rainbow Dash] It was nice of you to be part of the team that doesn't have... uh... the strongest flyers.

Rainbow Dash: Nothing nice about it. I know that I can pick up the slack for anypony. With me on the team, we'll qualify. I'm sure of it.

Twilight Sparkle: Ponyville is very lucky to have you.

Rainbow Dash: Yeah, I'm pretty awesome.

Fluttershy: [straining] [gasping] I am so proud to be representing Ponyville. [straining] Oh, it's such an honor to even try out for the Games. I just hope I don't let anypony down.

Bulk Biceps: We'll make them proud!

Pinkie Pie: 'P' is for 'proud'! We're gonna be the best fans anypony has ever seen!

Rarity: Ooh. Can't wait to see what everypony else is wearing, even though I am absolutely sure they won't be better than the Ponyville uniforms I'm designing for the Equestria Games.

Applejack: And we will make it to the Games once everypony carbo-loads on my apple brown bettys.

Pinkie Pie: I can't wait!

[train engine sounds]

Ponies: [excited chattering, groaning]

Mane Moon: There's Rainbow Dash! She's an awesome flyer!

Orange Swirl: I heard that she's flying the last third of the relay, which means everypony else is gonna have to be way ahead to beat her!

[distant boom]

Mane Moon: Oh, the Wonderbolts!

Sprinkle Medley: I hear they're flying for Cloudsdale.

Orange Swirl: Then Cloudsdale will definitely qualify. They're the best flyers ever.

Spitfire: And the game is on!

Soarin: Hah, nice to see there's some real competition here!

Fleetfoot: Two more days of practice, then we'll see you in the air, Rainbow Dash! If you're lucky.

Rainbow Dash: [sighs] The Wonderbolts know a winner when they see one, and we'll be winners just as soon as we practice! Right team?

Fluttershy: Right.

Bulk Biceps: Yeah!

Pinkie Pie: Hooray! [blows party hooter]

[beat]

Twilight Sparkle: And, um, I'm with her! Hooray!

Cloudsdale cheerleaders: Give us some clouds! Give us some dale! And what do you get? Cloudsdale! Woo-hoo!

Pinkie Pie: [gasps] Where can I get pompoms like those?!

Rainbow Dash: So, do I need to remind you of what our goal is here?

Bulk Biceps: Uh, maybe?

Rainbow Dash: We want to qualify! We need to be one of the first four teams to cross the finish line! Bulk Biceps, you're the first flyer, so let me see you flap it!

Bulk Biceps: [grunts]

[splat]

Rainbow Dash: What the?

Applejack: Sorry! Got the idea from them, but...

Rainbowshine and Sprinkle Medley: Hooves down! Cakes up!

Fleetfoot and Spitfire: [chewing]

Applejack: ...It looks like they got better aim.

Rainbow Dash: Okay, the passing of the baton needs to be seamless. You shouldn't miss a wing beat or drop a hair in altitude! And whatever you do, don't let go of it!

Fluttershy: Are you really, really, really sure you're ready? I mean, I don't want to take it if you're not super sure.

Bulk Biceps: Ready!

[clink, thud]

Rarity: Ponyville could do so much better. I'll be back with a freshly painted one in no time!

Rainbow Dash: We were using that! And it's not like anypony else has color-coordinated horseshoes or anything!

[clink]

Rainbow Dash: [sighs] I guess some ponies do.

Twilight Sparkle: Some ponies do what?

Rainbow Dash: [sighs] Have a better chance of qualifying and going to the Equestria Games than others.

Rainbow Dash: Watch and learn. The Cloudsdales are Wonderbolts, and Wonderbolts are the best flyers there are. And my personal heroes. So, maybe you can learn something.

[jet engine sounds]

Rainbow Dash: Please learn something?

Fleetfoot: C'mon, Soarin, pick up the pace! You can do better than that!

Spitfire: I sure hope so.

Cloudsdale cheerleaders: Practice, practice, yay, practice!

Soarin: Whoa!

[sound of plane plummeting]

Soarin: Whooaaaa!

Soarin: Aaaaah! Help!

Rainbow Dash: Gotcha!

Wonderbolts and Ponyville team: [excited cheering]

Fleetfoot: Awe-some!

Spitfire: As good as any Wonderbolt!

Fluttershy: Oh, Rainbow Dash, I'm just so proud of you. You scooped Soarin out of the sky and brought him down to the ground and now, now he's okay. At least, I hope he's okay. [to Soarin] Are you okay?

Fluttershy: We just wanted to let you know that we're so sorry you're hurt, but you shouldn't worry a bit about not being able to be in the tryouts. We'll be alright. We even have a replacement. We're so, so sorry that you can't compete. We all know how much you love to fly. And we promise-

Bulk Biceps: Cross our hearts!

Fluttershy: ...That if we qualify and make it to the Equestria Games and all win gold medals, you can have ours, because we know how much a gold medal means to you.

Rainbow Dash: Oh, I can't deny it. I love to win! But if I ever gotta choose between winning and being loyal to my friends, I'm always gonna choose my friends. 'Cause as much as I love winning, I love them waaaaay more.
